Jurgen Klopp will be back in the Anfield dugout this weekend as the legendary Liverpool boss joins the coaching staff for a charity matchJurgen Klopp's return is on the horizon as he prepares for a charity clash between Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund Legends. And ex-Reds striker John Aldridge will soon ask the German if he'd come back to manage the club.Having arrived at Anfield in 2015, Klopp achieved legendary status during his nearly nine-year tenure, guiding Liverpool to eight titles, including the Premier League and Champions League.Klopp stepped away on his own accord in 2024 with almost 500 games as Reds manager under his belt.

Earlier this month, Aldridge claimed he would ask Klopp whether he'd return as Reds boss during the event.Speaking to BOYLE Sports, Aldridge said: "I'm on the staff with Jurgen Klopp, so I'm going to ask him [to come back]! I think we've moved on from Jurgen, but we'd love him back if Arne Slot were to go."Obviously you would, because what he did for us, the passion he brought to the team, the club, and the fans was Bill Shankly-esque.

If Arne Slot were to go, we'd love him to come back."But it doesn't work like that, does it? Good luck to him, as long as when he plays against Liverpool in the Champions League in years to come, I'd want him to play his reserves!"Klopp's return to management has long been mooted, with rumours swirling that Los Blancos had contacted him and his representatives to enquire whether he'd take over at the Bernabeu.
